What kind of dog? My 12wk old GSP is doing great, besides possibly eating some staples today because my old lady didn't lock the kennel...
But assuming the dog doesn't die from staple consumption, I'm going to introduce her to quail either this week or next to get her prey drive up. As far as the gun breaking goes, I plan on having a buddy fire a .22 50-100yds away as I let her play with a bird, and gradually working in closer and louder guns. But I won't introduce gunfire to her for a couple months yet as I'd hate to make her scared of guns.

Picture is taken at my old lady's parent's house. They are ****ing hoarders.

Try waiting until she's eating or playing and stand about 20-30 yards away and fire a shotgun in the air. Then just keep doing that moving closer every time you do it. That's what I've heard to do anyway.

I should have also noted that the source wasn't a reliable one either lol.

But after a quick google, you're probably right. And then they move up to a shotgun after that. I also read that it might help to have a firearm around before you start shooting that way their first introduction of a firearm isn't with a bang/

I have heard mixed reviews on the Savage Axis. Savage makes good guns and I know the Savage 111 model with the detachable box mag sells for around 375 with a cheap scope if that would be in his price range.

I have an axis in .308. I use reloads with hornady amax bullets and Remington brass. Gun shoots acceptable groups for hunting. Pencil profile barrel only allows for about 3 shots in semi succession before you new to pull the bolt and let it cool or your groups start to get large
